1. Akutan Catcher Vessel Association

A. Cooperative MembershipThirty four member vessels made up the Akutan Catcher Vessel Association (ACVA) for the year 2016. The table belowshows the ACVA member vessels and their associated coop percentages. As in the past, coop percentages listedrepresent the vessels share of the coop pollock based on the relevant catch history of each member vessel. In additionto using these percentages for pollock distribution, the coop percentages were also used for the purpose of allocatingcoop costs down to the vessel level. The Trident Seafoods plant in Akutan, Alaska served as the primary purchasing andprocessing facility for the ACVA in 2016.

B. Cooperative ManagementThe Akutan Catcher Vessel Association is governed by a Board of Directors as well as through active participation by theowners and operators of the member vessels. The Akutan Catcher Vessel Association remains very active in the Inter-coop process and is bound contractually to the Inter-coop through the Inter-Coop Agreement. Inter-coop issues andfishery management decisions are brought to the coop level in the form of preferred alternatives. The preferredalternatives are a result of discussions and negotiations with the other coops resulting in unanimous decisions by allcoop representatives. All preferred alternatives are discussed and voted on at the coop level prior to being supported atthe inter-coop level.

C. In-Season ManagementThe day to day management of the coop is the responsibilityof the coop manager. The coop manager is responsible forall communications with the fleet regarding coop and inter-coop issues as well as providing all coop information back tothe vessel owners and managers. The coop manager also schedules all meetings, budgets and manages coop costs andattends all inter-coop meetings.

In addition to the above duties, the coop Manager is also responsible for all pollock and sideboard distribution as well asthe in-season management of all pollock, sideboard fisheries and PSC. Prior to individual season openings, it isrequested that the coop members advise the coop manager of their fishing plans. This is not a formal process but itprovides the coop manager adequate information as to which vessels will participate in which fisheries prior to thefisheries commencing. During this process, member vessels are informed of allocations or sideboard restrictions andany other pertinent information that needs to be conveyed. As the fisheries proceed, landing data is obtained by thecoop manager from the plant that received the catch and landing totals are tabulated and compared against allocationsor sideboards in the pertinent area. Vessels keep updated on their allocation progress via direct communication withthe coop manager. An update is also sent to the processor and the vessel owners on a regular basis. This processensures that no allocation or sideboard limits are exceeded.

It is also the responsibility of the coop manager to complete all coop reporting requirements as outlined by thegovernment. This includes the submission and reconciliation of all weekly reports and the compilation and completionof the annual report to the Council.

Transfers of allocation are used within and between coops to allow for efficient use of allocations. The coop manager isresponsible for tracking all transfers and preparing any necessary paperwork to facilitate the transfers. All completedtransfers are then reported to the coop via changes to the allocation spreadsheets that are distributed regularly. Inmany cases the manager aids in the transfer process by identifying remaining allocations or fishing situations in which atransfer might be beneficial for a fishing plan or salmon avoidance as requested by coop members.

All landings data, including prohibited species catches, are also gathered by Sea State, Inc. Since the inception of AFAcoops. Sea State has been hired to act as a third party to aid in our fishery management. Harvest and bycatch data isobtained by Sea State via the NMFS eLandings program which is used at the plants, or via observer reports which areacquired through the observer program office in Seattle. This data allows Sea State to aid the coop manager with in-season management as needed. This service is used primarily to monitor the harvest of prohibited species and tofacilitate the various bycatch programs put in place by the inter-coop group. All data gathered by Sea State is availableto the coop manager via a password protected website. Data on the website is available in aggregate or by individualvessel deliveries. Coop members can also log on to view this information on an inquiry only basis.

2. Akutan Catcher Vessel Association AFA Pollock

A. Cooperative Pollock AllocationBased on the NMFS verified catch histories of its member vessels, the Akutan Catcher Vessel Association was allocated32.263% of the pollock available for directed fishing bythe Bering Seaonshore sector. This resulted ina 2016 Bering Seapollock allocation of 188,860 MT. This total allocation was distributed to member vessels based on their correspondingcoop percentage. Per the coop agreement, 40% of their annual allocation was distributed in the "A" season and thebalance in the "B" season.

B. Vessel Allocations and Harvest

Table 1 shows initial pollockallocations to the ACVA member vessels as well as the total harvest of pollockby membervessels. Table 2 shows the pollock harvest along with non-groundfish and PSC catch.

TABLE 1:

As indicated on this table in the bottom right hand corner, 149 MTof pollock was left unharvested in this coop for 2016.

As evident by looking the each vessel's harvest compared to their allocations, many intra-coop transfers were made.Some of this is a result of vessels stacking their allocations to further rationalize the fishery. Many of these transferswere a direct result of specific operational plans during the "B" season fishery. For example, there are several vesselsthat don't harvest their Bseason pollock because of their participation in other fisheries. They would harvest both theirA and Bseason pollock allocation during the A season.

As you can see at the bottom of Table 1 three boats from outside the coop were contracted under Amendment 69 todeliver fish on behalf of the ACVA. All of this fish was delivered to the Trident Plant in Akutan.

No member vessels in this coop exceeded their annual allocation of BS pollock without approval of the coop manager.

Small overages do occur but were easily offset by the vessels that left small amounts unharvested.

3. BSAI Sideboards

A. BSAI Cod Sideboard Allocations

BSAI sideboard allocations were established for each AFA Coopfor pacificcod, yellowfin sole and rock sole. Novesselsfrom the Akutan Catcher Vessel Association participated in the Bering Sea yellowfin sole or rocksole fishery in 2016.Coopsideboard allocationsfor Bering Sea flatfish have not been distributed to individual vessels in the coop.

Based on the Sea State verified catch historyof its member vessels, the ACVA was allocated 29.89%of the Bering Seacod sideboards available to the AFA non-exempt fleet. This resulted in a total 2016 pacificcod sideboard total of 12,250MTto the Akutan non-exempt fleet. Seven member vessels in the ACVA were Bering Sea exempt cod boats in 2016.

B. Cod Sideboard Transfers

The middle column of Table 4 shows the cod transfers that were made for 2016 for the Akutan Catcher Vessel

Association. There were 3 cod sideboard transfers out of the Akutan coop in 2016.

C. Vessel Cod and PSC Harvest

Table 4 shows the cod coop percentage for each of the non-exempt member vessels and their associated sideboard

totals and harvest amounts for 2016. The bottom of the table also shows the BeringSea cod exempt vessels and their

associated cod landings for 2016. Table 5 shows the total cod sideboard harvest as well as the non-target groundfish

and PSC harvest for both the exempt and non-exempt member vessels.

TABLE 4:

A total of 2,422 MTof non-exempt cod was left unharvested during 2016. Asstated above, the total non-exemptsideboard allocation for 2016 was 12,250 MT, of which 78% was harvested. Most of the cod harvest took place in thewinter and spring during the January through April time frame. Only 1 member vessel participated in the cod fisheryduring the second half of the year.

As you can see by looking at each vessel's sideboard totals and harvest amounts, some intra-coop transfers were made.These transfers were the result of vessels stacking sideboards in order to allow vessels to finish pollock and others toharvest cod in the spring. All vessels that harvested amounts in excess of their own sideboard total did so under thedirection of the coop manager.

A summary of the ACVA exempt vessel cod sideboard harvest can be seen at the bottom of Table 4.

TABLE 5:

PSC caps were established for halibut, zone 1 red kingcrab as well as zone 1 bairdi and other tanner. As the harvest datashows, PSC bycatch was once again low in 2016. A total of 46 MT,or 48.7%, of the coop's non-exempt halibut mortalitywas used to harvest the non-exempt vessel's cod. The PSCcatch for the exempt cod fleet is also seen inTable 5.

4. Bering Sea Salmon Bycatch Management

Chinookand ChumSalmon Rolling Hotspot programs were once again in place for 2016 through the work of the inter-coop group. The Chinook and Chum Salmon BycatchAgreements were adopted by all of the coops. The overall goal ofboth programs is to provide to the fleet real-time bycatch data that can be used to avoid salmon hot spots and allow theharvest of pollock with as little salmon bycatch as possible. Incorporated in to these programs were weekly closed areasaffecting coops that had shown high salmon bycatch, as defined in the agreement, over the previous couple of weeks.

Sea State was used to monitor the fishery and salmon bycatch performance by the coops. Sea State was responsible forgathering the data, notifying the coop managers of bycatch rates by area as well as determining and announcing theweekly closures.

Vessels fishing for the Akutan Coop always make an effort to fish close to Dutch Harbor and Akutan in order to bring thefreshest possible fish to the plant. This provides the plant flexibilitywith its product mix and insures that they producethe highest quality product possible.

The Plant ran at capacity from the beginning of the 2016 BSeason. The fishing was good and salmon bycatch wasminimal. Fishing was also very close to the plant increasing fuel efficiency and fishing time. Pollock size was moreconsistent than ASeason and allowed the plant to maximize their product mix.

Squid bycatch was not an issue in 2016 as it had been in previous years allowing our fleet to fish in areas abundant withmarketable pollock and lower salmon bycatch.

Again in 2016, the Akutan Coop had a decrease in the appearances in the Sea State weekly "Dirty 20" list. The number ofappearances dropped from 64 in 2015, to 26 in 2016. The plant communicates with every coop vessel for every trip thenumber of salmon and bycatch rate in order to aid in the avoidance of salmon. The Akutan Coop used salmon excludersfor nearly 100% of tows in 2016.

The coop continues to seek out new technologies to aid in the reduction of salmon bycatch. We have used "TrawlVision" video cameras with some success.

The Akutan Catcher Vessel Association has received no notices from Sea State that we might have possible salmonclosed area violations during 2016.

Table 7 below shows the number of salmon taken by species and season by vessels harvesting Pollock for this Coop. Inaddition. Table 8 indicates the number of times vessels from this Coop appeared on the "Dirty 20" list as determined bySea State. Estimations of the number of salmon that may have been avoided by the efforts of this Coop and the RollingHotspot program are summarized in the collective catcher vessel Inter-Coop report to the Council at the end of thisdocument.

5. Gulf ofAlaska Sideboards

A. GOA Sideboard Allocations

Sideboards were established for the major target fisheries in the Gulfof Alaska. For 2016, Sea State publishedinformational tables with GOA sideboard percentages for each coop's non-exempt vessels. Sideboard totals for eachcoop were calculated by taking the coop's percentage of the overall AFA sideboard for that area and species. Cooppercentages are based on the relevant verified catch histories of member vessels.

Tables 9 and 10 show the Akutan Catcher Vessel Association 2016 non-exempt GOA sideboard limits for pollock and codas well as any inter-coop transfers that took place during the year.

TABLES 9 and 10:

As stated above, these tables list the total sideboard amounts in MT by area and season based on a total of themember's catch histories. Inter-Coop transfers are noted in the middle column and total sideboards including transfersare at the right. Table 10 lists the total cod sideboard amounts in MT by area.

B. GOA Sideboard Harvest

Three vessels from the Akutan Catcher Vessel Association participated in GOA sideboard fisheries in 2016. No sideboardlimits were exceeded by this Coop for 2016. Any additional harvest of GOA species by ACVA members was done on GOAexempt vessels.

TABLES 11 & 12:

Tables 11 & 12 summarize the Akutan Coop's harvest of GOAsideboards and the Associated PSC harvest.

TABLE 13:

Table 13 summarizes the GOAtotal sideboard harvest by Vessel in MT.
